I was shocked to see that last year's 'A' passmark was 78%! I mean yeah it was a fairly easy paper, and I got 80% when I did it as a practice, but only having 2 per cent room to breathe isn't reassuring, since I want to do Advanced Higher next year. Post here if you are in a similar situation!
Passmark/Advanced Higher A-Grade Passmark? Advanced Higher?

Your school not let you do AH even if you get a B? My school let someone with a C do it before.

Well yeah they do, but I realyl want an A. I'm sure I'll get it, as we did a mock exam in school today and I got 82%, and it was quite a bit more difficult than the average past paper.
It's also for Uni. application as well - probably best to have maths at A as my target is AAABB.
